Fortean Times Unconvention

PRESS RELEASE: THE FORTEAN TIMES – UNCONVENTION 2010

UNCONVENTION RETURNS!

Ever since 1994, the Fortean Times UnConvention has been the world’s foremost gathering devoted to unexplained phenomena. Two weirdness-packed days of talks, workshops, experiments, music, comedy and lively discussion…

UnCon brings together the best expert speakers from around the world in a weekend of non-stop weirdness.

Ranging far and wide across the world of strange phenomena - from conspiracy theory to cryptozoology, from magic to monsters, from religion to rocket science...

UnCon is back in 2010 and will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Rendlesham UFO encounter, going in search of the Blue Dogs of Texas and exploring the fortean themes of Doctor Who - not to mention enjoying bawdy ballads from the 17th century and investigating ghostly encounters of the sexual kind!

There will be fortean shopping opportunities galore with a wide range of dealers, full cafe facilities and (watch this space!) some surprise extra events!

This will be the most extraordinary weekend of the year!
